Nice!

Tested with qt-multimedia-team repo 7e7cbe2152efe47972e11875f008ddb8f0cc78db

Can confirm this works now, but I get a spinning beach ball on OS X while the
movie loads. In chrome the loading is almost instentanious, and in Safari the
load is slower and seems to match the time we spend, but the UI is responsive
and the seek bar is updated with the load progress. Dunno what could be the
cause, just reporting what I'm seeing :)

The seek bare also flickers a lot when you hover over it while the video is
playing. See screenshot. 

Also, when I then move from the sublime-player to http://vimeo.com/8736190, the
video sound keeps playing in the background, so something is not unloaded as it
should it seems.

Anyways, we can investigate these bugs as follow-up patches.

Confirmed

Cool

Looks good now.
